Identify the error in the sentence:
We’ll go through on the documents before signing them.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. on.
Error Concept: Incorrect use of a preposition within a phrasal verb.
What is wrong: The sentence uses the phrase 'go through on,' which is redundant and grammatically incorrect in this context. The phrasal verb 'go through' already means to examine or search something thoroughly. Adding the preposition 'on' after it disrupts the meaning and is not idiomatic.
How to correct: Simply remove the unnecessary preposition 'on' so that the phrasal verb 'go through' can directly take 'the documents' as its object.
Corrected Phrase: We’ll go through the documents
Final Sentence: We’ll go through the documents before signing them.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
